Subject: RE: Will I be needing a wetsuit?What is the water temp going to be? Air temp on race day (and morning)? How long do you expect to be in the water (including warm up)? Trying new things on race day is not recommended but either is freezing :-)... if the goal of the race is just having fun and you don't mind wearing a wetsuit that you're not used to than I'd ask... Can you borrow one? Pehaps you can demo a wetsuit? Wetsuits are faster as they correct our body positions enabling better hydrodynamics (remember... water is 300 times more dense than air). |
